HISTORIC TICINO RESIDENCE COMPLETELY RESTORED

There are properties that you buy. And then there are places that tell a story.

In the heart of the historic village of Prato-Sornico, in one of the most authentic and unspoiled valleys of the Canton of Ticino, stands an elegant mansion from 1838, completely restored in 2021 in full respect of its historical identity.

The ancient stone walls, the original arches, the granite stairs, the exposed beams, and the rare Ticino pine coexist today with high-quality finishes, modern technologies, high energy efficiency, and all the comforts of a modern home.

A hardly reproducible property, capable of combining history, prestige, privacy, quality of life, and significant tourist and rental potential.

Two apartments, many possibilities

The property consists of two independent apartments, perfect for a family or for those who want to host relatives, develop a hospitality activity, or obtain income from tourist rentals.

The first apartment offers a modern kitchen with quartz countertop, fully equipped, a large living room with sofa bed, a bedroom, a study or nursery, and a bathroom with elegant whirlpool tub.

The second apartment is the one that conquers at first glance: natural stone, restored arches, exposed beams, terracotta floors, and fireplace recreate the atmosphere of the old Ticino homes. A refined bathroom with stone shower with rain showerhead and separate shower completes the environment.

Tradition and innovation

The residence preserves all the character of the historic Ticino homes, integrating modern technologies for daily comfort. The infrared heating panels guarantee uniform and efficient heating, while the fireplace, pine, and Nordic stoves allow you to enjoy the authentic pleasure of fire, cook on wood, and have valuable energy autonomy.

A rare privilege: the water of the Alpine springs

Few homes can offer water of such quality. The house is fed directly by the mountain springs of the Val Lavizzara: naturally drinkable water, rich in minerals and iron, available every day directly from the tap, without treatment or bottles. A silent luxury that tells the purity of this territory.

A few minutes' walk from the famous natural pools of the Val Lavizzara

One of the major strengths of the property is its location. In a few minutes, you can reach some of the most spectacular natural pools in Italian Switzerland, with emerald green water, waterfalls, crystal-clear streams, and natural swimming pools carved into the rock, a destination every summer for thousands of visitors from all over Switzerland, Germany, the Netherlands, and many European countries.

The offer is completed by hiking trails, mountain bike routes, sports center, ice rink, sculpture museum, and numerous outdoor activities throughout the year.

A location that makes La Dimora not only a splendid private residence but also a property with concrete potential for tourist rentals, holiday homes, charming bed and breakfasts, or real estate investments in one of the most sought-after areas of the Vallemaggia.
